GENERAL SUMMARY
The Business Systems Software Engineer builds intelligent business applications that improve how LAIKA operates. Working closely with stakeholders across Production, Finance & Accounting, People & Culture, Facilities, Technology, and Studio Operations, this role transforms complex business processes into intuitive software solutions that people rely on every day. Unlike traditional application development roles, engineers on the Business Systems team build applications using LAIKA's Python-based application platform. The platform provides reusable capabilities for forms, workflows, dashboards, tables, calendars, reporting, enterprise integrations, and AI services, allowing engineers to focus on solving business problems rather than building UI infrastructure. As our platform continues to evolve, AI is becoming a core capability of the applications we build. Engineers on this team thoughtfully integrate AI into business applications, helping users work more efficiently through summarization, intelligent search, content generation, automation, and natural language interactions. We are looking for engineers who are excited about thoughtfully applying AI to solve real business problems, not necessarily AI specialists or machine learning experts. Success in this role comes from understanding how people work, identifying opportunities for improvement, and delivering software that makes complex processes simpler, faster, and more intuitive.
JOB FUNCTIONS
- Design, develop, and maintain internal business applications using LAIKA's Python-based application platform.
- Partner directly with business stakeholders to understand operational challenges, identify opportunities for improvement, and translate them into practical software solutions.
- Model business workflows including approvals, scheduling, validation, automation, and data relationships.
- Develop Python services, APIs, automation, and integrations with enterprise platforms such as Dynamics 365, UKG, Power Bi, Microsoft 365, Jira, Flow Production Tracking (ShotGrid), and other SaaS applications.
- Leverage reusable platform capabilities to rapidly deliver consistent, scalable, and maintainable business applications.
- Design and implement AI-enabled application features that enhance user productivity using Azure AI Foundry and other supported AI services.
- Identify opportunities where AI can improve user workflows through summarization, content generation, intelligent search, conversational experiences, or task automation.
- Advance the Business Systems platform by identifying reusable patterns, improving shared framework capabilities, expanding AI integrations, and enhancing the overall developer experience.
- Troubleshoot production issues, implement enhancements, and participate in design reviews, testing, and code reviews.
QUALIFICATIONS
- 3+ years of professional software engineering experience designing and developing business, desktop, web, or enterprise applications.
- Hands-on software development experience with Python or another modern object-oriented programming language.
- Experience designing and developing software that supports business processes, workflows, or operational systems.
- Strong software engineering fundamentals including debugging, testing, and writing maintainable code.
- Proficiency with REST APIs, structured data, and Git (or comparable source control systems).
- Ability to communicate effectively and translate business needs into thoughtful, scalable technical solutions.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience incorporating generative AI capabilities into software applications using Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI, OpenAI APIs, or similar platforms, with an interest in designing AI-assisted experiences that help users work more efficiently.
- Familiarity with enterprise systems such as Dynamics 365, UKG, Flow Production Tracking (ShotGrid), Jira, Cosmos, or similar platforms.
- Knowledge of Microsoft Azure services, cloud-native application development, or serverless architectures.
- Proficiency developing applications using UI frameworks such as Reflex, PySide/PyQt, React, or similar technologies.

Tips for Your Business Systems Engineer Job Search
Tailor your resume to ERP platforms
Hiring managers scan for named systems first. List every ERP, CRM, or ITSM platform you've configured or integrated, and call out the version where it matters. Generic 'systems experience' gets filtered out before a recruiter reads the rest.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists business systems engineer openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Document measurable process improvements
Business systems engineers are hired to fix friction, so your resume needs outcomes, not responsibilities. Describe the workflow before your intervention, what you changed, and the operational result. Reviewers compare candidates by impact, not by task lists.
Filter openings by deployment environment
On-premise versus cloud-native roles require different preparation. Targeting cloud-first companies means practicing API and middleware concepts, while legacy-heavy employers care more about data migration and change management experience. Matching your background to the stack saves wasted applications.
Prepare a cross-functional communication example
Interviewers for this role almost always ask how you translated a technical requirement for a non-technical stakeholder. Have a specific story ready: the business problem, your translation approach, and how the final solution was adopted by the team.
Negotiate scope before accepting an offer
Business systems engineer roles vary widely in ownership. Before accepting, confirm whether you own requirements gathering end to end or hand off to a separate analyst. Scope ambiguity is the most common reason new hires leave within the first year.
Business Systems Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most business systems engineers?
The companies hiring the most business systems engineers right now include Recar, Verkada, and Grainger, with the largest share of openings in California, New York, and Illinois, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Demand is concentrated in large enterprises and mid-market companies undergoing ERP upgrades or cloud migrations.
How many business systems engineer jobs are remote?
About 75% of business systems engineer openings are fully remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting steady demand for flexible arrangements in this role. Sub-areas focused on cloud integration, business intelligence, and requirements analysis tend to offer the highest share of remote options, while implementation and go-live support roles more often require on-site presence.
How do you become a business systems engineer?
Start with a degree in information systems, computer science, or business administration with a technical concentration. Build hands-on experience with at least one major ERP or enterprise platform through internships, lab environments, or support roles. Move into a systems analyst or junior engineer position where you can own requirements documentation and cross-functional delivery before stepping into a full business systems engineer title.
Can you get hired as a business systems engineer without much experience?
Yes, but you need to demonstrate systems thinking and documentation skills even without years of experience. Employers at the associate level look for candidates who can map a process, write clear requirements, and communicate across technical and business teams. Certifications in platforms like Salesforce or ServiceNow, combined with a portfolio of academic or freelance projects, can compensate for limited work history in competitive applicant pools.
What does the business systems engineer interview process look like?
Most hiring processes include an initial screening call with a recruiter, a technical interview covering systems design and SQL fundamentals, and a case study or whiteboard exercise where you map a flawed business process and propose a solution. Final rounds typically involve a panel with stakeholders from IT, operations, or finance who assess how well you communicate technical concepts to non-technical colleagues.
Where can I find and apply to business systems engineer jobs?
You can find and apply to business systems engineer jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Find the roles that match your background and apply directly to each listing without leaving the platform.
